Gail Collins from the New York Times, quite possibly knows more about the Romney family shame concerning Seamus, the fresh air lovin’ Irish Setter than anyone with the exception of Seamus – who has gone to a better place… Anywhere but Casa Romney, a feeling which he acted out by continually running away!
Mitt Romney’s story about this (too) has changed in just a few short months, until poor Seamus couldn’t possibly have been enthusiastic over riding atop the car; first in a crate atop the car that ‘he loved’ along with the fresh air, then later, in an air-tight carrier, which oddly allowed Seamus to both breathe and expell diarrhea due to his distress. Gail reveals Dad Romney’s scheduling mania, and the unfair reason PETA has been hounding him. Is this the kind of thinking we want on the Oval Office rug?
Gail, who is an amusing storyteller, has selected one of the strangest presidents this country has ever elected for a biography. Like many running for office today, his background was a myth. He did love to give long speeches. In fact his Innauguration speech cost him his life, and put him in the record books as the only president to serve a mere month.
